CAUGHT IN COTTON GIN.

Isham n: 'Holley, young man of six
teen, son of Willis Holley, colored
while pouring up cotton in the gin on
Mr.. Augustus Holleyls plantation, ac-
cidently got his hand among the saws.
The gin being run by steam its motion
could not be stopped and ere anyone was
aware of trouble the Young man had
his hand and forearm so badly lasce-
rated as to require amputation. The
Drs. Winborn performed the operation.
Up to this writing the patient is doing
well. The loss of limb to the laboring
man is by no means inconsiderable, we
therefore regret this misfortune because
its consequent injury is life long and
irreperable. Let this, another accident
among many of like character, all hap
pening from like causes-cotton gins
be caution to others and lead them to
the exercise of prudential care in their
labors around these instruments, which,
though beneficial in themselves, can be
SO easily converted into means of tor
ture and death.

the carrier are mutual. The interests
of the producers are protected by reason
of the option given to the shipper at
the producing point to forward grain to
the lake port at the same rates charged
when the grain is milled in transit on
the direct line. The opponents
of the system of milling Or
manufacturing in transit are those
whose interests are connected
with roads not one system is almost to-
tally confined between Lake Michigan
ports and manufacturing centers, n0ta-
bly, Minneapolis. Traversing little.if any
of the territory which supplies the raw
material, they demand that roads that
do, and that reach Lake Michigan ports
or well, shall deliver this raw material
.as the manufactured product to them at
the manufacturing point. If this de-
mand be conceded at Minneapo-
lis, as the principle established
then similar demand for manufactured
products at other points on this system
as at Hastings, Red Wing, Winona, La
Crosse or other points where manufac-
turing is done and where other railroad
systems compete for traffic may be
made with equal force. This is all there

The Chicago Anarchists.

CHICAGO, Sept. ia rumor that the
decision of the lower courts in the An
archist case had been affirmed was
spread over the city by the police this
morning and caused great excitement
for half an hour. The criminal court
buildings and all the courts about the
county Jail were suddenly over run by
special squads of police officers, detec-
tives and deputy sheritfs that have been
held in readiness. When the intelli-
gence reached Capt. Setback he was in
in the Chicago avenue police court. He
proceeded at once to the criminal court
building to Superintend the disposition
of the extra guard that would be at once
thrown around the jail. Jailer Folz
communicated the report to the con-
demned men, who were taking their ex-
ercise. The moisture broke out on the
face of Spies, who was talking to Miss
VanZandt. He wiped his face with a
pocket handkerchief and went on con-
versing with Miss VanZandt. The
others were not noticeably moved.
Capt. Shaack and the assistant states
attorney consulted about the measures
to be taken, and then the contradiction
of the rumor came. In five minutes
later the deputies, policemen and detec-
tiveS had disappeared.

law. 1t is Therefore as k I'd that the COM
mission COMPEL the railroad to refund
the excess collected from shippers. Sub
sequent reductions in rates on the river

ination against Mazeppa. Mr.. Hansen
next read the company'S answer, which
was, briefly, that the several railroads
in adjusting rates the rail-
roads had agreed upon rate Of

more fully how Mazeppa suffers
from the discrimination. The claim
was also made that the town

A SPLIT THREATENED
In the National Catholic Total Alb
Stinence Union.

CHICAGO, Sept. 13.-A split is immin-
ent in the National Catholic Total Alb
stinence union. The initiative was
taken at the Illinois state convention,
held at Ottawa few days ago, when a
resolution was adopted authorizing the
executive committee to issue a call for
convention of delegates from the va
rious Western. Southwestern and North
western unions for the purpose of form
ing all independent body. Hitherto
this section of the country has been in
affiliatiOn with the Eastern branches.
but it is contended that the latter are
too arbitrary and dictatorial; that they
hold all their national meetings in the
East and compel the Western delegates
to travel thousands of miles or stay at
home. 1t is also charged that the organ
izat:on is hampered by it's Eastern con-
nect.Ons and unable to do such effective
work as might be done were it running
things on its own hook. The malcon-
tents propose to keep in harmony with
the Eastern reserve by holding a Joint
convention every five years. but it is
hardly probable this step will be accept
able to the Eastern branch of the organ
ization, and split will doubtless result
